What Baking Powder Shall We useq

This plain question comes home to every
housekeeper. We all desire pure and
wholesome food, and this cannot be had
with the use of impure or poisonous bak-
ing powder There can be no longer a
question that all the cheaper, lower grade
of baking powders contain either alum,
lime or phosphate acid. AS 10th as we
may be to admit so much against what may
have been some of our household gods,
there can be no gainsaying the unanimous
testimony of the official chemists. Indeed,
analyses seem to find no baking powder en-
tirely free from some one of these obiec-
tionable ingredients except the Royal, and
that they report as chemically pure. We
find some of the baking powders advertised
as pure to contain, under the tests of Pro-
fessors Chandler, Habirshaw and others,
nearly twelve per cent. of lime, while 9th
erS are made from alum with no cream of
tartar. This we presume accounts for their
lack of leavening power as sometimes COM
planned of by the cook, and for the bitter
taste found in the biscuits so frequently
complained of by ourselves.
But aside from the inferiority OF the work
done by these powders, the Psychologists
assure US that lime and alum taken into
the system in such quantities as this are in
furious. They arenot decomposed by heat.
nor dissolved in mixing or baking. They
go with the bread, therefore, into the stom-
ach, where the physiological effects are in
digestion, dyspepsia or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do
these cheap baking powder makers use
these things? Alum is three cents a
pound, lime still cheaper, while cream of
tartar costs thirty-five or forty. The rea-
sons for the chemical purity of the ROYAL
Baking Powder were recently given in the
New York Times IN an interesting descrip-
ton of new method for refining argois.
or crude cream of tartar. 1t seems that it
is only under this process that cream of
tartar can be freed from the lime natural to
it and rendered chemically pure; that the
patents and plant for this cost the Roval
Baking Powder Company about half a
million dollars, and that they maintain ex-
elusive control of the rights.
Prof McMurtrie, late chief chemist of
the Department OF Agriculture at Wash
ington, ID. O., in the interests of commerce
made an examination of this process, and
reported upon the results attained in the
refined cream of tartar. The following ex-
tract from his report would seem to answer
the question repeated at the head of this
article, and which is so frequently pro-
pounded by the housekeeper:
!" have examined the cream of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Company
in the manufacture of their baking pow
der, and find it to be perfectly pure and
free from lime in any form The chemical
tests to which ha -e submitted the Roval
Baking Powder prove it perfectly healthful
and free from every deleterious substance

General Rosser Says the South is Tired
of Northern Democracy

General Rosser Says the South is Tired
of Northern Democracy.
MINNEAPOLIS, June 16th.-General Ros-
ser, the ex-Confederate, is in the city. To
a reporter he unbosomed himself in the
usual manner regarding Sheridan. When
asked his opinion of the political situation,
he said The South is improving. and
what it wants now is business. We have
discovered that the Democratic party-our
Northern ally-is not the one we should be
identified with, and the South will here
after act Independently for its own in
terests"
DO you mean that the South has found
that the Republican party at the North is
the one that balances the Democratic
party in the South in intelligence?n ?n
That is just what l mean. The Demo-
cratic party of the North is not what the
South wants. 1t is made up of the worst
elements at the North. 1t has got all the
Anarchism, Nihilism, whiskyism and other
'lsms. The Republican party embraces
the business men and energy of the North,
while our Northern ally is made up of cop
perheads and those who were disloyal. If
the Republicans nominate John Sherman
it is my opinion that there will be some
very independent voting in the South L
do not wish to say that that the South is
going over to the Republicans, for l am
not sufficiently posted to say that, but
think that Virginia and North Carolina
will go Republican. The temperance ele-
ment Will play no part in political way
in the South, and neither will the labor
question. The South wants business now,
and it will cut loose from its Northern ally
and bend its energies to get it,

Discussion of the Recent Bodyke Evic-
tions and the Coercion Bill.
LONDON, June 16th-In the House of
Commons this afternoon King Harmon,
parliamentary Under Secretary for Ire
land, III replyto question by Pease Lib
eral) SAID the Government was powerless
to suspend eVictions in Ireland Tbey
would be suspended, however, during the
period that Parliament devoted to the iu-
bilee celebration.
On the resumption of the debate on the
crimes bill Dillon moved to adjourn in or
der to call the attention of the House to
the Bodyke evictions. The Government,
he said refused to appoint committee to
examine INTO the matter. He was, there
fore, bound to demand an open discussion
in Parliament. The eviction of thirty. five
families disclosed features of the greatest
harshness. Seeing the public interest in the
matter, the Government ought to grant
committee of inquiry, the same as after
the Belfast riots.
Balfour asked why Dillon raised the
question at the present time, when mem
bers know the House must report the
crimes bill on Friday. Regarding the con-
duct of the police. no Government could
accept mere newspaper reports as a basis
for procedure, especially when such re-
ports are highly eolored. [Cries of Oh

the treatment the police received, it is not
surprising if, in some cases, they exceeded
their duty. Resistance to the law at Bo-

DENVER, June 16th.-Considerable ex-
citement was created in political circles
here this evening by the Grand Jury re-
tanning six indictments against Sheriff
Cramer for false pretenses and malfeasance
in office. 1t is alleged that he has been in
the habit of making overcharges for trans
porting prisoners to the Penitentiary
charging $5 per day for guards, when the
fact has been that he was only paying 81 or
So, and other illegal transactions of SINH
lar character. Indictments are also re-
tanned against Under Sheriff J. NJ. Chiving-
ton, Deputies Lynds and Thornton, eharg-
ing them with perjury in charging for
services never rendered. Deputy Sprock
went on the Sheriff's bond for his appear
ance in the Criminal Court to-day. and the
Sheriff went bail for the appearance of his
Deputies. The Sheriff declares that there
has been no illegal transactions in his
Office, and that the matter is persecution
upon the part OF political enemies, and he
has no fear that he will not be able to vim
dicate himself. Colonel Chivington was
the officer who, in 1864, led two regiments
of volunteers in the famous Sand Creek
massacre in southern Colorado, at which
time several hundred Arapahoe and Chey-
enne Indians were butchered.

The Southern Pacific and Atchison Roads
to Reach Anaheim.
ICoPight. 1887, by The California Associated Press
ANAHEId, June 16th.-Good authority is
given for the statement that the Atchison
road from the East is to form junction at
Anaheim with their Los Angeles and San
Diego road. The deeds for eight acres of
ground for depot purposes in Anaheim
were given to-day, and the reason why the
company asked for such an area of land is
now explained by the announcement that
a junction is to be made here. The parties
who contributed the land are assured by
the railroad officials that their cars will be
running into Anaheim within six months.
Senator Stanford's recent visit here with
a party of railroad officials, and their in
spection of the country known as North
Anaheim, is followed by the statementthat
the Southern Pacific intend to build a
branch road from Anaheim and through
La Habra valley.

Tcopyrigh, 1887, by the California ASsoctaed Press
Tucson. June 16th.-Last evening, as
Frank Proctor's vaqueros were returning
to Canoa, one of them, Rafael Canistello,
met vaquero by the name of Ismail on
the road south of Dos Reales and killed
him by shooting him through the head
and as no one but the principals OF the
tragedy were present few particulars of the
affair can be learned. From the account
given by Canistello, it appears that the two
men were friends, and that the latter, hav-
ing bottle of whisky, offered it to Ismail
to take drink. While he was in the act
of drinking Canistello drew his pistol with
the intention of firing il in the air, in order
to call - time on the drinker, but it was
accidentally discharged and Ismail re-
ceived the pistol-ba through his
head. After the killing Canistello overlook
his companions and told them what he
had done. They decided to lay the matter
before Charley Proctor, who was on the
road ahead of them, but failed to overtake
him before he reached Canoa. He advised
Canistello to return to Tucson this morn
ing and to give himself up and to make a
statement of the affair. This the man
promised to do, but this morning he had
disappeared, and as his saddle was gone it
is supposed that he caught a horse that
came to water and hied himself to the
land of the Manana." The people of Dos

oner's inquest and buried him to-day

feet, making him drop the Ball. Umpire
McQuade, whose previous decision had

safe. The crowd howled and swarmed

was on hand and succeeded in preventing a
